[edit] DARWIN SELECTION

These cassettes contain extracts from the key passages of Darwin's nine most important books, including 'The Origin of Species', 'The Descent of Man', 'The Voyage of the Beagle' and 'The Expression of Emotions'. Comments are provided by evolutionary biologist Mark Ridley.

Charles Darwin, almost uniquely among great scientists, wrote for the general public. In A Darwin Selection, Mark Ridley has chosen key passages from Darwin's most important books, filling in their context and drawing on the latest Darwin scholarship. In this work, Darwin emerges as an experimentalist, unveiling the lives of the plants; as a travel writer; and as a natural philsopher. His theory of natural selection is clearly and beautifully exposed. 'Ridley's selection of Darwiniana - as befits his reputation as one of the most widely read of all evolutionary biologists - is a first-rate one' Steve Jones
